ASTRA AlertManager

AlertManager is a UI component that creates and manages the queuing of alert windows in a Flash Application.

Accessibility

AlertManager is not accessible in this release. An accessibility implementation has been created and is considered in alpha status, for testing or demonstrational purposes.

Role: ROLE_SYSTEM_DIALOG

Limitations

Alerts do not properly declare themselves as having overlaid the screen. Therefore it is not advisable to use them in an accessible application at this time.

Enabling Accessibility

To enable accessibility, do the following:

Sample Accessible Application

Below is an embedded application built to showcase accessibility. To experience this application properly, you must have a screen reader installed and be familiar with how to use it. Accessibility was developed with JAWS for Windows as the primary screen reader. Installing the JAWS Flex Scripts is highly recommended to obtain the most reliable results.

This example requires Adobe Flash Player.
